re : I'm sorry to hear that they hate us so much. I've always been an Anglophile myself. Is it just the media, or are the people becoming that way too?

We don’t hate you, but I have to admit after a day of freeping where Americans are telling me that my country stinks, that we had our asses kicked, that you saved us from the Germans, that we are all nancy boys, that we are all bucked teeth, and so on and so forth.

I have to admit that then maybe Americans are not my most favorite people.

Cheers Tony

I have nothing but respoect for the way England stood alone against the Nazis for so long.

You should hear the things they say about Kentuckians and Hoosiers. Some freepers have accused me of having no teeth, marrying my cousin, and being a corn-chomping hick. I ignore it and laugh it off.

I hear Freepers saying wonderful things about the Brits. Tony Blair is a real hero here. He is a man of courage and conviction. When I read threads about Iraq, I see prayers for the British troops and posts of thanks.

respoect = respect

You got a point.

There are 55 million people in the U.K.

And 55 million Americans voted for Kerry.

The fight is between people who love freedom and people who don't and that's something we should all keep in mind.

There are a whole lot of Americans I'd trade for a whole lot of Brits (and even Frenchmen).

And thank you very much for the support you've given us in Iraq.

I think Americans need to come up with new lines to insult the British with. The "tea sipping, bad teeth" stuff is getting old, as are the references to Valley Forge and Lexington/Concord etc. There must be some part of the current "Cool Britannia" that we can legitimately make fun of, like that forgot-his-name wildly popular metrosexual soccer player with the model wife.
